My fiance and I are buying a purpose built apartment in Newton Longville with a loan from Nationwide Building Society.We like our Newton Longville conveyancing solicitor but Nationwide Building Society advised that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Nationwide Building Society panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and pay for a Nationwide Building Society panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Nationwide Building Society conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide Building Society

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Newton Longville I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Newton Longville for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I work for a long established estate agency in Newton Longville where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales derailed due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received conflicting advice from local Newton Longville conveyancing solicitors. Could you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.

An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.

    For most Newton Longville leaseholds the cost for major works are not incorporated into the maintenance charges, although some managing agents in Newton Longville require leasehold owners to pay into a reserve fund created for the specific purpose of establishing a fund for larger works. You should want to discover as much as possible concerning the managing agents as they will affect your use and enjoyment of the property. Being a leasehold owner you are frequently in the clutches of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to day to day issues like the cleanliness of the common parts. Ask prospective neighbours what they think of them. On a final note, find out the dates that the service charges are due to the managing agents and precisely what it includes. The best form of lease arrangement is where the freehold title is in the ownership of the leaseholders. In this scenario the tenants have control and although a managing agent is often employed where it is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves.
